Comments on Voce's last concerts...

"I was absolutely thrilled - the choir is absolutely terrific and has come on SO much recently - the concert couldn't have gone better and I was delighted with how it sounded. I had a fantastic evening."   (Suzi Digby)

"I've heard the choir four times now and every time I'm absolutely amazed at how much you've improved - I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it. The programme was fantastic, with a mix of Renaissance, nineteenth century and modern jazzy numbers, and I sat on the edge of my seat all the way through. Well done!"    (Paul Gladstone-Reid: Steinway pianist and composer)

"came across as almost professional standard. This concert was superb" (Oliver Condy, BBC Music Magazine)

Matthew d'Ancona: "and music... what music!"
